OF interest: Mr.. Powell made discoveries
which justify him, under tine advice
Of District Attorney Burnett to cause

defraud by issuing June IA three drafts Of

Advices from Honolulu shows that
a condition OF affairs prevails there
which is but little short Of a revolu,
tion. The king is fortifying himself
in his palace, and great discomfort
prevails among the people. The Brit
ish ana American residents have
asked their consuls to request their
governments to send war vessels to
the islands to protect them. The
King has been very extravagant,
spending large sums OF money useless.
" and failing to make needed public
improvements. This has contributed
to the dissatisfaction among the peo.
pie Ihey are represented as heartily
tired Of the king business, anyway,
and are fully alive to the absurdity ol
allowing themselves to become the
mere poppets OF kingIy power.

Massachusetts has taken q step in
advance Of many states which pro-
hlbit suit against them, by the enact
ment of a Law authorizing all
persons in commonwealth to them
in the superior court, where they are
to be tried before three judges instead
Of judge and jury. This act puts an
end in Massachusetts to the ancient
doctrine that the government cannot
be called to answer in its own courts
. to the claims of the subject or citizen,
and opens the doors Of the court OF
suits against the state as freely as
against individuals.

Excitement in Wall Street.

On Friday 2ith inst, panic was pre-
cipitated upon the New York Exchange,
by a rumor of Jay Gould's death, and the
admitted tightness of money Stocks
broke from two to forty per cent. Man.
haitian declined Al; Missouri Pacific from
lO6 to 90; Western Union slid down Un-
til it had lost 81, and Kansas and Texas
about 3. Texas and Pacific would
have gone even lower had it
not been for the nerve of
Fisher, the specialist in the stock, who
saw it,drop 81 to 25, when he made up his
mind to make or break, and stood up firm
ly to.take up all that was offered at that
figure. Had it not been for his determina-
tion it would have gone to 20 and perhaps
lower, Courage was regained, in 4 meas
ure, in the last hour, and the market became
active and firm at the advance. Manhattan
ran up to 1876 again, Missouri Pacific 1O3,
Lack0wanna to 134K, Western Union to 72
and Northwestern to 11G2. The bond mar
ket was rather neglected and SO suffered
less than might have been expected. Alto
gether it was an exciting day, for both
bulls and bears, but no serious results are
aDprehended.

r. G. Dun & Co., OF New York in Their
weekly review OF trade on the 25th says
The failure OF the Fidelity bank OF Cincin
natl is the natural fruit OF the wheat cor
ner but has disturbed business during the
past week quite extensively. The pros
peCt that depOsitOrs may recover nothing,
that more than eight other banks which
deposited there will have losses to bear
and that the fraudulent rehypothecation
of eollaterals for loans will entangle the
resources of many who had nothing to do
with the wheat opera tion, makes the dis
turbance felt in many quarters. The
withdrawal of funds from New York to
meet immediate needs at the West has
caused temporary stringency here, which
spectators have magnified, but foreign ex-
change is so near the shipping point and
the supply of unused funds abroad is so
large that relief would come quickly il
needs here should become serious. More
over, large disbursements by the treasury
in July are now close at hand. In the halt
yearly settlements, in the struggle to
iquidate enormous speculations, there
may be some pressure for money during the
remaining days of June. At nearly all
other points money is reported in good
supply. General reports OF business at
hearty all points are highly encouraging,
and the increasing prospect OF good crops
adds to the prevailing confidence. Coliec
tions are generally fair to good, and the
volume OF business good for the season.

Doing the Kow-ToVV.
TCot, EranofSn, OhrOy,ioIa


The kow.tow ceremony, as witnessed
by a reporter one day recently at a Chi
nese temple on Waverly Place, will bear
description. The gardian of the temple
was just sounding a barrel-shaped drum
suspended from a wooden framework.
Having evoked a few dull, rolling sounds,
he wakened the echoes by pulling a mass
i've bronze bell hanging underneath
Then taking the sticks of incense, he
placed a mat on the floor before each
idol on which he knelt, first bowling
down with hands Joined, and then raising
them above his head like the priest ele-
waiting the host at mass
He then performed the kow tow, which
consists of knocking the head against the
floor six times before minor idols and
nine times before major gods with great
rapidity and violence. The Monaghan
devotee fulflls his religious task with no
half hearted zeal, making the floor
vibrate again as he introduces his head to
it The thought would naturally occur
that this would be rather trying even to
an opium -befogged Chinese cerebrum;
and passing near the worshiper as he rose
from his task, it was noticed that he had
on the top of his head bullying protuber-
ance as large as an average fst-the result
of frequent and vigorous kow- towingS.
This must have become perfect by Callous,
IS in response to query on parting the
custodian remarked that the frequent
dumping was the cause of no pain or un-
fpleasantness.

A People of Simple Tastes.

Rome Cor San Francisco Chronicle
The Italians are simple in their tastes,
frugal and easily pleased The low prices
of the refreshments they consume enables
them to satisfy their desires at the ex-
pense of a few cents in an evening At
the cafes they take cup of co lee, sip
glass of wine, or eat an ice. Their self
indulgence seldom extends any further
than bottle of wine of the country
which costs from 10 TOGO cents For the
cup of coffee or the glass of wine they
pay at the best cafes cents, and for an
ice 10 cents a glass of Cordial NAV cost
cent or two more
If the evening is warm the tables in
the inside rooms are empty and those on
the pavement full They TRANQUILITY sip
the different beverages they have ordered,
interchange compliments with the ladies'
placidly discuss the newspapers, which
small and badly printed, seems to appear
at all hours, and about II o'clock go
soberly home with their wives, sisters
and daughters 1t the night is sultrier
than usual. they remain little later
The excitement, noise, gesticuladon, and
wrangling so common III French cafes are
never seen in those in Italy. Even so i'm
portant an occurrence as q change of
ministry produces only subdued ami
nation in the groups discussing it. 1t is
not because there is no interest felt in
public affairs, for there is. indeed. pro-
found interest coming from a genuine
love of country, but it is the way in which
a people, naturally gentle, refined, and
wellbred, shows its feeling.
In observing, from day to day and
evening after evening, this unexcited
mode and movement of existence, one
comes to wonder where is the flint which
strikes all this fire, or whereabouts in the
anatomy of such people is the deadly
impulse which inspires the stiletto, the
poisoned goblet, and shows itself so en-
during in the vendetta No one can
know the better class of Italians without
liking them, in spite of the absence from
their character of some of those deeply
seated and enduring qualities which have
been the chief source of the greatness of
northern nations
